How are the 2026 World Cup contenders shaping up?

Paris: The 2026 World Cup in North America will be included in the feature of 48 teams, but an extended tournament does not mean that Lionel Messi is the wider field of real contenders to succeed Argentina as champions.

In Qatar’s recent tournament, only eight countries have won the World Cup in the 22 editions, when Argentina defeated France in a penalty in an epic final. This was his third title, in which only Brazil improved with its record five crowns, and Germany and Italy four.

There is still a year before the kick -off in the United States, Canada and Mexico, with many unknown people left, at least with the start of the European qualifying. Seven of the eight World Cups held in the American continent, the South American team has won.

There was a European winner in Brazil in 2014, when Germany contested Argentina in the final. However, Argentina, which is at the top of FIFA’s world rankings, will be a defeating team in 2026, even if any country has not maintained the trophy since Brazil in 1962.

With being a champion, he has won the last two editions of Copa America, including in the United States. In March she became the first South American team to secure the ability.

Most of the team of 2022 is under the coach Lionel Skyloni, and it seems that like Messi – which will be 39 years old during the competition – it will have a role to play. Skyloni recently said, “He wants to play in the World Cup and everyone wants to watch him play.”

Brazil won the last World Cup in the United States in 1994, but he is in a crisis and even Carlo Enlieott can struggle to revive his luck. “I have a great job and I hope that Brazil will become champions again,” said Ansloti. “The sole purpose is to win the 2026 World Cup.”

Former coach Doriwal Jr., a contradictory form of qualifying cost, needs to take his work, and insuluity Rafina and Vanus Junior need to take steps. Anloti started a goal in Ecuador on Thursday.

If a European winner is to be, Spain is a clear candidate. When he won the World Cup behind the European Championship victory, he would bid to repeat his 2010 achievement. The Louis Da La Fivent team, who starts qualifying in September, is proud of the most interesting young man of world football in Lamin or Malmal. He will be 19 years old during the World Cup.

France has gone to the last two finals, and four of the last seven. This will be the last tournament for the Deadreen Deschemps before retiring after 14 years in charge, and Kylin will be counting for the second World Cup winner. The disappointment of winning England’s first title since 1966 has led to the appointment of Thomas Tachil as coach.

The German said, “I know some trophies are missing … and, of course, I want to help it happen.” In the last two euros, runner -up, and the World Cup semi -finalist in 2018, England will look at Jood Belingham to lead their accusation. It may also be the last chance of Harry Ken to win the International Trophy, as it will be about 33 33 years old.

Germany has not moved beyond the stage since winning in 2014, but Julian Nagsman’s team is visible on UP and its key may have the opportunity to work together Florine Wratz and Jamal Musala.

“We need to qualify because it is absolutely important to us,” coach Luciano Spieli confessed. If the first time is to be a winner, the Netherlands will not be removed three times runner -up, though Portugal may have a better chance. As usual, the question will be whether Cristiano Ronaldo’s presence – is expected to occur in the Sixth World Cup at the age of 41 – can stop an interesting team.

The possibility of a first victory for a host since France in 1998 seems to be non -existent. Maurico Pokteno is struggling to make his identity in the United States, setting a target to win the team when the team is appointed. Mexico is looking at the quarter -finals, which will be similar to their previous best exhibition, while for Canada, just getting out of their group will be quite successful.
